Apocalypse: After Being Reborn, I Stocked Up on All Supplies Chapter 151: 151 Night Exploration of the Sky Hotel 02

Chapter 151: Chapter 151 Night Exploration of the Sky Hotel 02

Jiang Yan looked up and right above her was a ventilation duct of considerable size.

She had just contemplated climbing to the rooftop helipad from the side when she heard the “rumbling” sounds of helicopter rotors coming faintly from the sky, not far away.

Jiang Yan quickly glanced back before turning around and climbing directly into the ventilation duct.

Several people downstairs also noticed the sound and the light that ca from the sky.

“Quick, move to the side!” Sun Jingtao quickly pushed the rubber dinghy into the corner to hide.

The helicopter circled above the Space Air Hotel before landing on the helipad.

...

The engine soon shut off, but they did not hear the sound of the cabin opening; it seed like they were waiting for soone.

Jiang Yan frowned. Who could they be waiting for at this hour?

But she didn’t ponder it further, instead continuing to climb upwards. Once she reached a safe position at a corner in the duct, with a thought, she entered the Space.

Jiang Yan removed her damp raincoat and wall-climbing device, then put on an identical set of sportswear. After drying her face and head with a super-absorbent towel, she once again ca out of the Space, fully equipped.

This ti, in addition to night-vision goggles, she added a simple filter mask capable of blocking toxins and a pair of explosion-proof earplugs that did not affect her hearing.

It couldn’t be helped; the dust in the duct was too thick.

And it slled unpleasant.

With her secondary preparations complete, Jiang Yan, guided by Hua Bao’s “navigation,” continued to crawl through the ventilation system toward the interior of the hotel.

Her destination was the lobby area.

If the enemy’s headquarters were on the rooftop, the lobby area would certainly be heavily guarded.

From this small indicator, it would be possible for her to speculate on the strength of the opposition.

Moreover, there would be concealed maintenance hatches and air conditioning vents, making it much easier to inspect the interior environnt.

Additionally, the hotel’s air conditioning was centralized.

The size of the ventilation ducts above each room area varied.

With Hua Bao’s assistance, she mostly traveled through the more spacious areas, avoiding situations where the duct was too small to pass through.

To minimize noise, Jiang Yan moved very slowly, and it took a while to reach the lobby area.

Through the air conditioning vent, Jiang Yan could vaguely see so light.

It was conventional illumination.

Jiang Yan was startled.

Earlier outside, they had used a telescope to observe for an entire afternoon.

The Space Air Hotel was pitch black from top to bottom, without any light source at all.

From this, it was clear that the enemy’s counter-surveillance asures and defenses were exceptionally strong.

She slowly moved her head closer to the ventilation opening.

Then, Jiang Yan took out her telescope.

Looking at the scene in front of her, she couldn’t help but inhale sharply.

The initially splendid hotel lobby, with its luxurious decorations and piano, had all been removed.

In the empty area, there were sentries every three steps and guards every five, with seven or eight people dressed in black combat uniforms.

Each one held a black submachine gun in their hands.

They stood stiff and straight, with proper posture.

If not for the “Golden Shield Security” emblazoned on their chests and the black-and-red tattoos on their faces, hands, and necks, Jiang Yan would’ve thought she had entered so formal military installation.

Around the lobby, which was originally surrounded by 360-degree panoramic transparent glass windows, was now completely covered with multi-layered blackout curtains.

No wonder then.

Further inside, the previously open lobby bar area was enclosed with light steel framing and gypsum board.

It seed like a hastily made modification.

There were no windows, only one door.

The door was currently closed, with two young n in camouflage attire and ard, standing at the entrance.

Their attire and deanor suggested that they were undoubtedly regular military personnel.

Very bright lights shone through the cracks of the door.

Jiang Yan was incredibly curious.

Then she thought of the helicopter on the rooftop helipad, and a bold, strange idea flashed through her mind.

Moreover, it was nearly two in the morning, and the lights were still bright inside.

These people were strangely dedicated.

Even if 007 clocked in, he’d have to double-tap 666 for their dedication.

While she thought this, Jiang Yan was already slowly crawling towards the lobby bar above.

“Eh, Brother Zhao, Brother Zhong, did you hear so rustling sounds from the ducts above?” Suddenly one young man looked up, his gaze vigilant as he glanced at the ceiling.

However, all he saw was an extravagantly luxurious do and a few reflections of people.

The do was crowded with ticulously hand-blown colored glass flowers, tightly packed and dazzling to behold.

“Just heard it, it’s normal, the hotel’s kitchen was always full of rats, there must be a few with good stamina that didn’t die in the heat.”

“Ah, then could they have mutated too?”

“Shh, are you braindead? Is this the ti to discuss this?!” The other man quickly turned his head to glance in the direction of the lobby bar.

The first man’s face paled, and he went silent in a second.

Elsewhere, just as Jiang Yan crawled over the lobby bar, she heard a robust and powerful old man’s voice coming from below:

“Zhao Nianzu, this wall surface looks rough, is the sound insulation any good?”

As he spoke, he even tapped on the wall a few tis.

The gypsum board produced muffled “thumps.”

“Don’t worry, Elder Mo, ti was tight, so we used gypsum board, but as per Brother Xue’s request, we lined it with thick soundproofing cotton; the sound insulation is pretty good!” another man said.

Judging by the voice, he seed to be middle-aged.

“Yes, Elder Mo and Miaomiao had specifically instructed on this outpost, so I’ve been very conscientious,” another middle-aged man spoke.

“Xue Dazheng, speaking of Miaomiao, the upper levels have already noticed this place. All the factions are now busy grappling for power amidst the chaos; one misstep from us, and all our previous efforts will be wasted. There are things that I can’t help you conceal too much. You’d best hurry to transport your materials, people, and equipnt in the next couple of days!”

The elder paused, then continued:

“Moreover, we can’t leave this building standing any longer. Perhaps once the rain stops, soone curious might follow the clues and discover sothing.”

“Thank you for your concern, Elder Mo. We will report back to Miaomiao upon our return. In addition, we will expedite the matching of the heart and retinas you want. As for this building, we have plenty of explosives in storage; before we leave, we will deal with it, ensuring no traces are left behind!”

The elder nodded in satisfaction, “Good.”

Jiang Yan’s breath hitched: “Xue Dazheng, Miaomiao… heart and retina matching… blowing up the building…”

If she rembered correctly, Xue Dazheng was rumored to be Xue Miaomiao’s maternal uncle.

If her previous suspicion that Young Master Xue of Fla Base was Xue Miaomiao was just a bold conjecture, then at this mont, this conjecture seed to have been confird.

And according to official information and Dao Yinping’s statents, the head of Golden Shield Security was precisely that Zhao Nianzu.

Looking at it now, Zhao Nianzu—who had his hands in both legal and illegal worlds—was nothing more than a tool for the Xue Family!
